Cars that look best in odd colors

[SVX]

Purple is my pick.

 

[Neddo]

 

[SPhilli911]

Some more odd Porsche colors.

Ocean Jade Metallic

Crystal Green Metallic

Minerva Blue

Sapphire Blue Metallic

Audergine

Sqhara Beige

 

[Heldenzeit]

Indianapolis Red.

 

[Aerocoupe]

Silver with orange pin stripes anyone?

 

[lxmmy]

Mexico Blue.

 

[-Fred-]

Indianapolis Red.

That'd be perfect if the wood accents were a bit darker.

 

[Heldenzeit]

That'd be perfect if the wood accents were a bit darker.

Or piano black.

 

[SPhilli911]

Mexico Blue.

That's Riviera Blue! It's very similar to Mexico, to be fair.

 

[Heldenzeit]

Chestnut Bronze.

 

[-Fred-]

That is literally baby poop brown with metalflake in it.

 

[Heldenzeit]

Baby poop yellow more your thing?

 

[-Fred-]

As long as the smell isn't included, I'm all for it.

Citrus yellow Honda Insight, a color that was also available on the NSX if I'm not mistaken.

 

[Heldenzeit]

Garnet Metallic.

Looks really unique in person.

 

[Wiegert]

Baby poop yellow more your thing?

It's actually quite stunning/shocking on something more... sedate:

£800 extra to have your Superb Sportline coated in "Dragon Skin". Not my top pick but it certainly livens up a regular Skoda forecourt.

Chestnut Bronze.

Gorgeous!

 

[GDII]

Greenish Air SVX. A one-off example, which debuted at the 29th Tokyo Motor Show, 1991.

(green leather, mmm)

Retro fitted/painted on a production model. Actually is "Emerald Mist", a 2003 Infiniti Q45 color. Surprisingly factory looking.

I prefer it in Bordeaux Pearl!

That certainly works on the Superb. Fantastic.

I know this is the best color thread but when did Chevy introduce this ugly color?

Me being me though I would love to see this on a Z06. Never seen this color before.

 

[Heldenzeit]

Nasty yellows seem to be common lately.

 

[AerodyManiac]

Looked for it in the past few pages, but haven't seen a 300 SL, so I'm going to post it here:

Personally I think it's a dull shade of green, but it could also be grey. Can anybody tell me if it's the same colour as this?

Anyway, I found this when looking for the #417 Mille Miglia 300 SL (which looks equally gorgeous BTW), and I think it looks about as nice as a silver one. I even thought of building a model of it in the same colour.

 

[PsuPepperoni]

 

[Silver Arrows]

Not a picture, but I generally find that any color other then red works extremely well on most modern Ferrari's.

 

[MedigoFlame]

Stumbled across a C5 Corvette on CL in Purple Pearl. I quite like it.

 

[Nico_Ble99]

 

[RocZX]

Irish Green 911R

 

[Castrol96]

Irish Green 911R

Porches look good in all odd colours.

 

[Michelin Man]

Not necessarily and odd colour but a rare one, is the Citroen Saxo VTS two-tone grey-silver painjob

Quite a rare sight is a two-tone Saxo VTS (in the UK at least), which is funny really as Citroen said that it was a never a special edition of any kind. Look very nice to me, though I prefer the VTS in dark green (think it's called Norris green but could be wrong) in phase-1 form, which is becoming an ever rarer sight too.

 

[lxmmy]

Grigio Medio

 

[Adamgp]

Citrus green
